    Just got this email from BBCE. Pretty nice gesture on their part.



    << <i>Bill -

    Just wanted to let you know that all the packages are going out today (Post Office was closed yesterday) for the latest CU group rip. They will all be going via USPS except for the people who've added additional product, those will go via UPS. The 1981 and 1983 Fleer Baseball boxes each had (2) additional packs in the boxes as an incentive for the dealers back in the year of issue. I placed those packs randomly in the orders. I also grabbed a couple of 1984 Donruss, 1987 Fleer and 1987 Topps packs off the shelf and randomly inserted those into the orders. Thanks, Rick.

    I have opened my fleer packs and got a Wade Boggs 1983 fleer rookie(second card in pack) and it is slightly OC top to bottom but should be a close 9 due to centering. The other packs had no star power but are clean as a whistle.

    I have opened the topps as well and got a Tom Herr Rookie in the 80s, the 81s were all commons the 82 pack was blazing as far as centering and quality and pulled a Eddie Murray, Dave parker that could both 10 and a Steve Sax Rookie

    83 and 84 all common players but again clean.

    The O-Pee-Chee were both clean but full of commons.

    I did pull an 85 Marty Barrett and that card sure does look like a Clemens rookie as you flipping through them.

    Opening Donruss now.

    never opened an 81 pack it went like 4 orioles, 5 As, etc.

    the 82 pack had a yount, carew and murphy in it

    83 had a fingers in it

    85-Mattingly DK

    86- commons

    87-Strawberry and Sierra Rookie(was this a freebie pack)??


    the best 40.00 I spent going down memory lane. I have alot more to bust so I am out for now

    Thanks for putting the group rip together.

    This was my first group rip, I started my own thread, my bad. I would post all the scans here, but besides a nice '84 Fleer Strawberry, I didn't get much. Good luck to everyone else!

    This was a fun rip!! The 82 Topps was in great condition and the whole pack was centered. Whomever pulls a Ripken might have a shot at a 10.

    I need a few OPC commons for a set if a few kind folks wouldn't mind helping.

    The top / bottom on the Strawberry isn't 50/50, but it will fall in the 45/55 range hopefully. I'm at work and I don't have any of my measuring tools like I do at home.

    The lower left edge has a little rough cut to it, but maybe they will treat it like opc and let it go. On the last group sub I sent 5 opc and all had a little roughness on the edges and they all got 10's, so maybe this one will too.

    Note: Sweet Card!

    Hey LSU, I got these from a box I recently tore thru

    20, 163, 227, 293, and 381

    all are sharp and decently centered.

    PM your info and they yours!!

    P.S. - I coulda sworn Jack Clark was a megastar/not a common?

    No big hits and no possible 10's nothing worth submitting, but a really fun trip down memory lane. Here are the scans:

    Ryan was the last card and has a wax stain on the back. It can probably be softly rubbed off, but then it also has that fisheye. Otherwise a cool card:image

    image

    image

    Too bad the Yount was OC:
    image

    Here are some casualties. Ozzie has a big stain on the surface. The Bench and Carlton have dents/dings in the side. My '83 Topps and '84 Fleer packs had most of the cards damaged in them. The Morgan and Stargell/Rose have pressure bends in them:

    Got mine today......

    Here are some of the highlights.

    Thought I was not going to get anything great until I hit the jackpot....

    Probably a PSA 9 which will pay for the rip and then some.

    Received mine today and got one of the extra 81 Fleer packs. All in all I think I got spoiled. Here are a few highlights from my rip (which I thoroughly enjoyed, by the way).

    The Rickey is obviously O/C, but I didn't have one so I'm thrilled. The Rose and Boggs aren't too bad either.

    Congrats on the Rickey. I had a Henderson in my '80 pack, but it was Glenn Henderson or someone like that. image
